realme has expanded its audio lineup with the launch of its new pair of true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds, the realme Buds T500 Pro in India, designed for everyday versatility. The earbuds bring features like active noise cancellation (ANC), high-resolution audio support, and seamless multi-device connectivity.
Audio and Noise Cancellation -
The Buds T500 Pro feature a 12.4mm Mega Titanized Driver, tuned to deliver strong bass output while preserving clarity across higher frequencies. They support SBC, AAC, and LHDC 5.0 Bluetooth codecs for improved audio quality.
A key highlight is the ANC capability, offering up to 50dB noise reduction. Each earbud is equipped with a triple-microphone setup (six microphones in total) to enhance voice clarity and suppress background noise. Users can choose from multiple ANC modes—Smart, Max, Moderate, and Mild—depending on their surroundings.
Connectivity and Smart Features -
Equipped with Bluetooth 6.1, the earbuds offer a stable connection with a range of up to 10 meters. The Buds T500 Pro also supports multipoint connectivity with up to three devices, enabling seamless switching between a smartphone, tablet, and laptop without the need to manually disconnect and reconnect.
realme has further enhanced the experience with software-driven features:
- Live Translation: An app-based tool that enables real-time face-to-face translation for bilingual conversations.
- Find My Earbuds: A built-in tracking feature that helps users locate misplaced earbuds through the companion app.
Battery and Charging -
The charging case is equipped with a 530mAh battery, while each earbud packs a 62mAh unit. As per realme’s claims (tested at 50% volume under standard conditions):
- Earbuds only: Up to 13.5 hours of continuous playback
- With charging case: Up to 56 hours of total usage
The earbuds use a USB Type-C port for charging. A full recharge takes about 1 hour for the earbuds, while charging both the case and earbuds together takes roughly 2 hours.
Design and Durability -
The Buds T500 Pro sport a stem-style in-ear design and come in multiple color options, including a bold yellow-black combination, along with white and blue variants.
For durability, they come with an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance, making them suitable for workouts and everyday outdoor use.
